Recommended Jupyter Lab extension for improving accessibility

Hi,

Are there any recommended Jupyter Lab extensions for accessibility? I found this accessibility toolbar:

but it’s no longer supported by the community and due to this, it is not recommended by this Jupyter accessibility repository:

For context, I work for an astronomical facility called the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, which will conduct a galaxy survey of the whole southern sky for 10 years. People will access this large amount of data via a website called the Rubin Science Platform (RSP), which has a JupyterLab (version 4.2.5) container component. We want to use prebuilt Lab extensions to extend Lab/notebook functionality to improve accessibility.

I already found the following extension:

  • Quansight-Labs/jupyterlab-accessible-themes

but it would need to be made JupyterLab 4.x compatible to be used at the RSP.

I wanted to ask first if there are any recommended Jupyter Lab extensions for accessibility.

Thank you!
